Best Western George Hotel

This has to be one of the worst hotels I’ve stayed in. Felt run down and in need of repair. The shower barely worked and full of limescale. The rooms were noisy from passing traffic with squeaky floorboards from other visitors. On checking out the staff had calculated part of another guests bill to ours. Receptionist was quite abrupt. Avoid if you can. less

Stayed for one night, staff are very friendly , bar and lounge areas are nice , however the room I was in was tired and could do with a refit, the bathroom which was down a corridor looked like it was last refitted in the 1980,s judging by the decor and the shower was temperamental with the water temperature. Bed was comfy but it is not a place I would rush back to, it’s a shame as the staff clearly are professional but working in a premises that needs some money spent on it less

The staff are great and generally the building is good. But the rooms are dated and the bathrooms leave somewhat to be desired. As for the shower, a bath if you have one is a better option. Not exactly what you call fast flowing. A dribble perhaps! Beds comfortable and food very good. less

We stayed here as part of our Norfolk tour and were pleasantly surprised by the lovely staff and the size of the room. This is one of your older hotels so the bathroom isn't amazing but the room itself is great to crash in - the bed is huge!!! The neighbouring bar and restaurant were lovely, limited food choices, or at least unusual, I have never heard of a Chicken Oz before! But again the service was lovely! Would definitely stay again! less

I have been staying in the George weekdays for 8 weeks and can only praise the staff here. Always greeted with friendliness and helpfulness and any small changes I requested were always met, from needing extra things for the room to a complete room change. Everyone has been very accomodating (pun intended!) Some rooms have been renovated and modernised (I've been in several during my long stay!) and others are more old fashioned, but all are clean, have comfortable beds, WiFi, flat screen TVs, tea/coffee making facilities, hairdryer, electric fan. Originally a 16th century coaching house, guess what! Yes part of the building is actually old and yes there are some creaky floorboards! The front rooms i stayed in were newly renovated but face the main junction and light sleepers may find it a bit loud (advice, when booking request a room that's not at the front!) my colleagues who are heavier sleepers have had no issue with the front rooms! Having been here so long I've pretty much eaten my way through the menu and haven't had a bad meal once. Everyone has had different experiences at different places, but I feel some of these reviews were expecting 5* in a 3* hotel! It's classed as 3* and stands up to my comparison to other 3* hotels I've stayed in! I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it, as I have been nothing but happy with my stay. Especially with the hospitality and helpfulness of all the staff.. and especially during the recent snowfall that left me stranded here 5 days longer than booked! I can't be more grateful x less
